I voted for Sliver cos its not a colour. I guess this was a trick question right?

It's got to be orange. For a year I was the proud owner of a much loved (by me) VW Caravelle. One of my daughters refused to go in the Caravelle and Sue wasn't very pleased with it either. One thing they pointed out was that just about no other car on the road is orange. I saw this as a plus, they said it meant that orange was unpopular

I sold that orange Caravelle to a woman from Guilford who fell in love with it

Andy: clearly other car drivers do not have your sense of taste or unique vision

I'd get an orange car, or yellow. Stands out more and you cant lose it in car parks.

Thats what i do, my first car was mint green, second was bronze and this one is maroon

Some colours just don't look right on a car, not sure which ones, but I know them when I see them.

My car is silver - which has the advantage of being easy to keep clean! My last one was red - both were passed on to me from a family member so I would have been very grateful anyway, but I like both red and silver in cars.

You could just tie a ribbon to the arial. Then you could change it any time you like - the ribbon could even glitter or have hand-sewn sequins

As the owner of a metallic green runner I'm not happy with how this poll is going.

I know Jamie, just confused by the choice of thread...was this drathzel's suggestion? I mean, us blokes talk about engine size, make, fuel economy, sound systems...

..whereas if you say "I've got a new car" to a woman [mode=SEXIST] their first question, 99% of the time, will be "What colour is it?"[/mode]
